Bibliographical Notes

  • The n-contextual grammars with choice were introduced in [132]. The variant without choice is investigated in [160]. The n-contextual grammars with restricted choice are introduced in [133] and investigated in [136]. The results presented above are based on these papers. Further variants (and results) can be found in [134], [135], [137].
